Edwin Feliu Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I bought a Nikon R8 Super from Super 8 Arena. I love it but am having focusing issues. The test roll came back so blurry that shapes couldn't be recognized. This baffles me, since I usually use the distance scale. The lab believes it's the diopter, but I usually don't depend on what I see in the viewfinder. Any ideas? I'll shoot another test roll hoping it's only user error.

Andries Molenaar Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Use the split-image focusing aid. And indeed check the lens collar for being in the macro setting. Exposing films to check for focus seems an odd method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
